JCE 2.2.5 released

JCE 2.2.5 has been released. This release includes updates to TinyMCE and JQuery, as well as a few bug fixes.

UPDATE 2 : JCE 2.2.5.2 has been released to fix a bug caused by a missing widget in the JQuery UI library. I also snuck in a fix for the JCE Installer Upload button positioning in RTL documents.

UPDATE : JCE 2.2.5.1 has been released to fix an error in the installer which prevented the editor from being updated using the JCE Updater.

Check out the Changelog for a full list of bug fixes and updates.

New Technical Requirements

The technical requirements for JCE have been changed and now are the same as those for Joomla! 2.5, regardless of the Joomla! version you install JCE on. A check is done on installation to make sure your server meets these requirements. In a nutshell, the changes include :

  • PHP 5.2.4 or later is required (as in Joomla! 2.5)
  • The PHP SimpleXML library is required (as in Joomla! 2.5)
  • The PHP JSON extension is required (as in Joomla! 2.5)

Enter Key behaviour

The "Enter Key creates a..." configuration parameter has been replaced with a "Container Element & Enter Key" parameter. This is essentially the same thing, but thanks to a small change in the TinyMCE core, it is once again possible to to set the container element and newline behaviour.

Installation and Updating

Updating to JCE 2.2.5 from existing JCE 2.x versions can be done using the JCE Updater, or the Joomla! Update Manager in Joomla! 2.5. Alternatively, follow the Installation Instructions for a new install or update.
